6. Program Description
The Bachelor’s Degree in Ocean Studies (BAS-OS) Degree will offer a broad academic
background in biological and physical ocean sciences and will feature directed field research
experiences. The program will focus on knowledge and skills that address problems affecting
the unique marine habitats and organisms of the Hawaiian archipelago with particular attention
to the sustainability of marine resources and ecosystems. Major emphasis will be on the use of
current and emerging technologies as research tools.
Objectives: The BAS-OS baccalaureate degree will:
 provide a comprehensive background in ocean science literacy;
 introduce the newest technologies and skills used in marine field and laboratory research;
 raise the awareness of local and global marine environmental problems and issues
incorporating inquiry, problem-based learning, and place-based learning;
 assist marine researchers working in the County of Maui by providing highly trained
student interns for on-going projects;
 prepare students for careers in a variety of marine-related areas including research and
project management; and
 provide opportunities for experiences in K-12 ocean science education and prepare
students for articulation to teacher certification programs.
Relation to MauiCC and UH System Mission, Vision, and Strategic Plans: The proposed
degree directly supports the College’s Mission, Vision, and Strategic Plan which are guided by
the Native Hawaiian reverence for the ahupua`a, a practice of sustaining and sharing diverse but
finite resources for the benefit of all. The mission statement is “Maui Community College is a
learning-centered institution that provides affordable, high quality credit and non-credit
educational opportunities to a diverse community of lifelong learners.” The College’s vision
statement is “We envision a world-class college that meets current and emerging Maui County
education and training needs through innovative, high quality programs offered in stimulating
learning environments. Refer to Appendix A for a summary of the specific goals, objectives, and
action strategies in the College’s 2003-2010 Strategic Plan that are directly related to this
proposed degree.
In March 2008, the UH System Strategic Outcomes and Performance Measures were updated
through 2015. In the section on Potential Campus Strategies to Create a Globally Competitive
Workforce, two of the goals that will be supported by this degree are 1) to increase student
support in STEM fields and 2) to increase collaboration with external partners to address critical
workforce shortages. Refer to Appendix B.
Relation to DOE Career Pathway: The development of this degree directly supports the State
Department of Education (DOE) Career Pathway in Natural Resources which serves to guide
career exploration and planning activities, to focus teaching and learning, and to link education
with relevant real-world experiential activities.
Program Requirements: Counseling and recruitment will begin once the program is approved.
Upper-division courses should begin in fall 2011. For a summary of program requirements, refer
to Appendix C, which includes 1) program admission requirements, 2) program degree
requirements, 3) recommended course sequence, and 4) a summary of how the program
admission requirements satisfy some of the requirements for the MauiCC AA Degree in Liberal
Arts.
Input to Program: Students may enter the BAS-OS program from a number of different
pathways. In addition to those earning an AA Degree in Liberal Arts, other MauiCC students
may be enrolled in General Education courses without a degree plan. There are many local
people employed in the marine-related workforce who have expressed an interest in a
baccalaureate degree for promotion, while others are interested in positions that require a
baccalaureate degree as a minimum qualification. This program should also attract transfer
students from within the UH System as well as from out-of-state and possibly from other
countries.
Output from Program: Appendix D list links to current positions available at several different
marine-related governmental agencies, non-profit organizations, research institutes, and non2
formal education institutions in the County, State, and Pacific Island Nations. Appendix E gives
an overview of where former and current students of MauiCC have found employment in Maui
County. Many of these are results of success Service-Learning experiences and internships.
Some graduates of the BAS-OS program may choose to teach and could continue on to one of
the post-baccalaureate teacher credential programs at the UH College of Education at the
MauiCC University Center. While some may prefer to teach at the K-8 level, graduates of this
program will be qualified to enter the certification program to teach science at the secondary
level. Other graduates may be more research oriented and may wish to transfer to postbaccalaureate graduate degree programs at any number of institutions including UH-Manoa’s
Hawaii Institute of Marine Biology or the School of Earth & Ocean Sciences & Technology.
Assessment: A variety of student assessment strategies will be used. A six-credit senior
experimental research project will be carried out and summarized in a written scientific research
report and a formal oral presentation. All students in the degree program will be required to
maintain portfolios of their upper-division course work, project and internship reports, field
notes, data analyses and summaries, research papers, selected readings, directed studies
materials, service-learning journals, web pages and other media presentations, instructors’ and
supervisors’ evaluations, and other pertinent materials.
7. Program Justification
The tide is turning in the State of Hawai`i in the area of conservation, protection, and
management of the unique and highly threatened natural resources. The college needs to be
prepared to supply a well-educated and experienced workforce.
Internal: Each year at MauiCC there is a minimum of 150 students enrolled in marine courses
with at least 20 of these students placed in research assistantships, internships, and servicelearning positions. Often these students express a desire to continue working in these areas as
careers. Unfortunately, many of them are not able to afford to leave their homes and families on
Maui to pursue advanced degrees and consequently are unable to accept positions in their area of
interest and experience. Once this degree is available, our graduates will form the new
homegrown corps of researchers, managers, administrators, directors, educators, and policy
planners.
Several years ago, MauiCC was fortunate to have had a cadre of students obtain their BS
degrees in Marine Science from UH-Hilo. Students continually ask when this opportunity will
be available again. Unfortunately, the UH-Hilo faculty made it clear that this was a one-time
experience and will not be offered to MauiCC students again.
Refer to #8. c. for information on role of the new MauiCC Science Building in this program.
External: At the most recent Hawai`i Conservation Biology Conference on Oahu, MauiCC
Marine Option Program (MOP) Coordinator, Donna Brown, was approached by Dr. Paul Jokiel,
who is the leading coral reef ecology researcher at HIMB, to discuss the critical need for
additional research interns and assistants for on-going scientific marine research projects in Maui
County. One of the most important coral reef habitat protection projects, which needs continual
data collection, is survey of the herbivorous fishes on nearshore reefs. In a recent visit to
MauiCC, HIMB Director, Dr. Jo-Ann Leong, made a commitment to allow MauiCC to provide
research assistants to support the institute researchers working in Maui County. MauiCC also has
a memorandum of agreement with the Pacific Region of the National Marine Sanctuaries (NMS)
to place our students in research assistantships. In addition to placement in Hawai`i there is a
possibility of NMS internships in American Samoa and at the national office in Washington DC.
Refer to Appendix F.
Other groups of MauiCC students assist researcher, Dr. Celia Smith with the UH-M
Department of Botany, and her graduate researchers with field projects on invasive algae.
3
Another of our MauiCC students is conducting a study for the National Marine Fisheries entitled
“Fish Catch, By-Catch, and Protected Species Interaction with Recreational and Commercial
Fisheries on the Main Hawaiian Islands”. Students regularly assist with the following on-going
research and restoration projects, and all of these could support upper-division research projects
 underwater baseline studies for the Kaho`olawe Island Reserve Commission,
 Turtle Standing Network and other research with the National Marine Fisheries,
 invasive species surveys for the Kealia Pond National Wildlife Refuge,
 coral reef technicians with the Division of Aquatic Resources,
 beach erosion research and replenishment projects, and
 Waihe`e limu restoration project with the Maui Coastal Land Trust.
There are exciting new directions in the use and design of marine technologies, such as the
use of underwater robotic devices to collect data. Local DOE schools have been very active in
robotics and quite successful at national competitions. Other local research projects that the
students and the community express interest in include: underwater acoustics and effects on
marine organisms; commercial and recreational fisheries stock replenishment and sustainability;
whale and other marine mammal communication, migration, and behavioral studies; energy from
a variety of physical ocean sources such as waves, tides, and ocean thermal variations;
aquaculture and use of algae as a source of carbon-based fuel; the causes of the degradation of
marine habitats, particularly coral reefs and beaches, and possible solutions; studies of threatened
and endangered species, such as marine turtles and Hawaiian monk seals; use and restoration of
Hawaiian fishponds; traditional fishing practices and environmental knowledge; and aquaculture
of marine ornamental and food organisms, such as aquarium fish, edible fish, shrimp, lobsters,
and oysters.
8. Description of resources required
a. Faculty: Existing: Two FTE faculty members teach lower-division courses in Biology,
Chemistry, Ecology, Marine Biology, and Physics and there is a temporary part-time
instructor who teaches Oceanography and is the Marine Option Program Coordinator.
New: Two FTE faculty members will be hired to teach upper-division courses: one would
specialize in physical oceanography and technology and the other in biology and ecology.
Both instructors will supervise and evaluate directed research and internships, directed
studies, and the senior research projects.
b. Library resources: A thorough search will be carried out to determine if the library has
access to the most commonly used scientific journals for articles in marine-related research.
Subscriptions will be needed for any journals that are not available. Additional reference
materials will be needed to support specific upper-division courses and directed studies.
c. Physical resources: The State Legislature recently appropriated $25 million to build a new
science building on the MauiCC campus. Included in this plan is a dedicated space for
Marine Science Programs. The current microbiology laboratory will be available as
community research facilities and may accommodate project partners. Additional supplies,
computer hardware and software, and laboratory equipment will need to be purchased to
assure that the new laboratories will have the most up-to-date technologies available.
d. Other resources required: An Applied Professional Technician (APT) position (Band B Instructional & Student Supervisor) will be needed to support the coordination of the field
research project assistants, internships, the Marine Option Program. A counselor will be
needed to work with the students enrolling in the STEM Department BAS programs and this
cost will be shared among the four STEM baccalaureate degree programs being proposed.

10. Impact on current courses or programs. The BAS Degree in Ocean Studies Program will
have a positive impact on enrollment in currently under-enrolled science courses such as College
Physics and Introductory Biology, which are lower-division prerequisites for admission.
11. If this program is multidisciplinary, provide evidence of commitment for support from the
colleges, departments, programs, and/or individuals expected to participate. Even though
the majority of the science courses will be offered through the STEM unit, additional upperdivision General Education courses will be required, several of which are currently offered
through the ABIT Program. Additional courses that relate to specifically to ocean studies are
proposed in Communications and Hawaiian Studies.
